OKP4 Snapshots

OKP4 is a decentralized proof-of-stake (dPoS) system built on layer 1 of the blockchain. It enables communities to securely exchange data, algorithms, and resources, ultimately constructing the Dataverse. This open world allows users to participate in or create custom ecosystems, going beyond the scope of Decentralized Finance (DeFi). The system is powered by the Cosmos SDK and Tendermint consensus, serving as a central hub where data providers, developers, data scientists, and users can collaborate and generate value from data and algorithms. OKP4 introduces fresh possibilities for real-world collaboration. It enables Smart Contracts to coordinate off-chain information, ranging from access control to intricate workflows that involve multiple shared datasets and services. This framework paves the way for the future of applications, while ensuring complete control and ownership of shared data and resources.

Download OKP4 testnet Snapshot

How to use

Download the snapshot

wget https://snapshots.bwarelabs.com/okp4/testnet/okp420240417.tar.lz4

If OKP4 was already on your machine, stop your OKP4 service

sudo systemctl stop okp4.service

OR container

docker stop <OKP4_CONTAINER_NAME>

AND make sure there is no process running that might try to write to the database

ps -ef | grep okp4-node

Make sure your Injective data directory is clean (let us assume <OKP4_HOME> is your root Injective directory)

make sure to backup your priv_validator_state.json file before deleting the contents of the data directory

mv <OKP4_HOME>/data/priv_validator_state.json <OKP4_HOME>

Make sure your okp4 data directory is clean (let us assume <OKP4_HOME> is your root OKP4 directory)

rm -rf <OKP4_HOME>/data/*

Make sure you have lz4 installed

sudo apt-get install lz4

Decompress the archive

lz4 -c -d okp420240417.tar.lz4 | tar -x -C <OKP4_HOME>/data

Copy back the priv_validator_state.json file

rm <OKP4_HOME>/data/priv_validator_state.json

mv <OKP4_HOME>/priv_validator_state.json <OKP4_HOME>/data/

Start the OKP4 service OR container!

What is OKP4 snapshot?

Our OKP4 snapshot can be particularly valuable when syncing a new node to the testnet network. Instead of downloading and validating the entire blockchain from scratch, a new node can use a snapshot to quickly synchronize within the network.

Why use our OKP4 snapshot?

Using our snapshots during the setup of full OKP4 chain nodes can significantly speed up the syncing process by skipping the validation of all data. This can greatly enhance the speed of the setup. Instead of syncing from scratch with other nodes, you can utilize our OKP4 snapshot to sync faster.

What is the block number of OKP4 Snapshot?

A node snapshot is a snapshot of the blockchain at a specific point in time, and it includes data and state of the blockchain up until that block number. The block number determines the specific point in the blockchain's history that the snapshot represents.

The current block number of OKP4 testnet snapshot is 7492930

How often is the OKP4 snapshot updated?

Regular updates are made to ensure accurate and up-to-date information. The frequency of the updates depends on the specific data being captured. We regularly update our snapshots to reflect the most recent and accurate state of the OKP4 chain.

The most recent update to the OKP4 testnet was on 18 Apr 2024, 02:15:31

How long does it take to restore a node using OKP4 Snapshot?

The time it takes to restore a node using a snapshot can vary depending on several factors, including the size of the snapshot file and the performance of the underlying hardware. In general, the process involves transferring the snapshot data to the node's storage and then initializing the node from that snapshot. For smaller snapshots, the restoration process can be relatively quick and may take just a few minutes. However, for larger snapshots or in cases where the network or storage infrastructure is slower, the restoration process can take longer, potentially several hours.

The OKP4 testnet size is 263G.

What does it mean if a snapshot is pruned?

The pruning of a node snapshot refers to the process of removing unnecessary data from the blockchain database to optimize storage space while keeping the integrity of the data. Pruning allows nodes to store only the most essential information needed for the blockchain's operation while discarding older and less relevant data.

The OKP4 testnet snapshot is pruned.

What is the main difference between pruned and archival nodes?

Pruned and archival node snapshots are two different approaches to storing blockchain data in a more efficient manner. Pruned node snapshots prioritize storage efficiency by discarding older transaction data, while archival node snapshots prioritize preserving the complete blockchain state.
